When I started my vendor search journey for my wedding, I was unsure if I wanted a videographer in addition to my photographer or if having pics would be enough for me to remember the day. But I am so glad I chose to have a videographer as well and extremely pleased with JR Murray Productions. I made quite a search for a videographer, reviewing costs, example videos, style of work, etc. I came across JR Murray Productions and reached out. It wasn't just his natural style that drew me in, but also his willingness to travel 2 hours to my venue and the incredibly reasonable/fair prices. Jeremy was so pleasant to work with -- All of our interactions were friendly, timely, and he was always happy to hear my thoughts or opinions to make my day as smooth and comfortable as possible. During the day of, he made sure to get candid clips as well as some "posed" moments to make the full video really come together. Receiving the full video was so exciting. One of the reasons I chose Jeremy as our videographer was because he offered a full length "movie" type video of 60-90 minutes. This was exactly what we were looking for in order to relive the full day years down the road. It included our whole ceremony, speeches, and so much of the fun from the reception. Overall, I highly recommend hiring a videographer for your wedding and choosing JR Murray Porductions for that role! It makes reliving the day so special. I can't thank Jeremy enough for how well the video turned out, the time and effort put into it, and how friendly he was to work with throughout my entire planning process and wedding day.

Hi! This is Andi, a videographer who, after 7 years of making news documentaries and nonprofit videos for social causes, decided to step into wedding films. My documentary works have won the Telly Awards, New York Festivals Gold Awards, and a NY Emmy. Currently serving couples in the Washington D.C. metro area and beyond. You can find pricing and package info on my website.

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn’t have asked for a better videographer for our wedding! From start to finish, Andi was professional, dedicated, and incredibly thoughtful, ensuring that our special day was captured beautifully. Right after we signed the contract, she sent us a detailed questionnaire to get to know us as a couple—our story, our style, and the specific moments we wanted to highlight. This level of preparation reassured us that she truly cared about making the video personal and meaningful. About a month before the wedding, she proactively reached out to request the venue’s floor plan, demonstrating her commitment to planning ahead and making sure every shot was perfectly thought out. On the wedding day, Andi arrived an hour early to get familiar with the space and even took some breathtaking outdoor shots before the festivities began. Her presence was so natural and unobtrusive, allowing us to fully enjoy the day while she captured everything seamlessly. Throughout the event, she worked tirelessly to document not just the big moments but also the little details and emotions that made our wedding unique. One of the things that makes Andi truly stand out is her background as a former reporter and documentary filmmaker. Her storytelling skills are evident in every frame—she has a keen eye for capturing genuine emotions and weaving them together into a narrative that feels raw, real, and deeply personal. She didn’t just record our wedding; she told our story in the most beautiful and authentic way. When we received our wedding video, we were absolutely blown away. It was beyond anything we could have imagined—every moment was beautifully filmed and edited, creating a cinematic and heartfelt masterpiece that we will cherish forever. What truly stood out was Andi’s creative touch—she included interesting and unexpected moments that showcased her artistic eye and deep understanding of human connection. Most importantly, the video felt authentically us—it captured the emotions, the joy, and the essence of our relationship perfectly. We are beyond grateful for Andi’s work, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and passionate wedding videographer. If you want someone who truly cares about your story and will go above and beyond to create a stunning wedding film, Andi is the one to choose!

From the first time we contacted Michelle, she was nothing but kind and professional. She communicated with us about details and any questions we had. On the day of our wedding, she was incredible to work with. She worked alongside our photographer and it was so smooth! The day we got our highlight video and our ceremony video was ALMOST as amazing as our wedding day! Michelle’s videography skills along with her editing work is breathtaking. Every time we watch our videos, we end up in happy tears. The way she captured our entire day and highlighted all of our favorite parts and put it all together in a video made us speechless. We also purchased the raw footage and she organized it on a flashdrive. We are so thankful to have this footage to look back on! Her style of videography and editing is incredible and beautiful. We would not have asked for a better videographer for our wedding. We are forever grateful.

Choosing them was the best decision we made, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for a professional and talented videographer!

Every couple is different and we strive to create something with you that truly reflects that. From first meet to final delivery, you can expect a genuine experience that hopefully feels like working with a friend more than a vendor. We offer both Super 8 film and camcorder-style footage in addition to our standard 4K delivery. <3

My husband and I booked Cat after seeing 1 Instagram post and having 1 phone call. When you know, you know ;). I knew I wanted videography services and one of her reels caught my eye (the song she used was a string quartet version of one of my husband and I's "songs"). I saw the reel, sent her an email, and was shocked that she was in our budget. It really felt like fate. Cat probably doesn't realize this but booking her set the tone for other vendors we booked and we truly had a dream team. I have her to thank for that! She and Jared were professional, kind, and easygoing. She had a very calming presence about her and she vibed super well with our photographer (who we also loved)! I had zero concern or worry about the quality of the content she would produce- we trusted her completely. Every teaser I saw was exactly what I'd hoped. She caught the most perfect moments and our video is truly a representation of the day. I will cherish it forever, especially as we grow older and the memories inevitably fade. I would book Cat a thousand times over and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a videographer- wedding coverage or otherwise!!
